At 2.5 lbs per 100 sq ft, you only need 32 lbs. I'm not certain, but it sounds like you plan on putting the whole 55lbs bag down, and also hoping the manure brings it down even more.

Of course, if you want to bring down more than 1 point, you would need more, but I caution (and so do many others) about trying to make major changes in short periods of time.

Just a suggestion.
